Poorly baby

My DD is 14 weeks old, for the last 2 weeks she has been grabbing the side of her head (crying with it) not sleeping well, really irritable, has a cold, really sick... took her to the drs and was given antibiotics as we were going away but told to only use them if she carried on but she seemed to get better so we didn’t use them. She then got worse again so we took her to a GP on holiday who said she didn’t have a temp, she was strong etc so just give her calpol.

It’s now 4 days on and she’s still not right... She’s also due her jabs tomorrow which are already a week late/ will be closed next week due to xmas so going to take her and see what they say. On the NHS site it says they will do them as long as they have no fever, but it’s not ideal having injections when poorly. What would you do? Would you go to the drs again/see what the nurses say?

I’m just not sure and want her to start getting better.

I’d be tempted to take her to the GP and get them to check her ears, throat and tum.

Sounds like it could be a cold which has turned into an ear infection but I would go back to the doctor.
